How do I print a section from a page?

Either a saved document or a saved screenshot or an open web page? I can't find anything up to date on Communities that works. And 'print selection only' does not exist.

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 12.2

Print Selection for macOS can save you ink, paper, time ...



worse case scenario, copy and paste into a plain .txt file first— print that stripping out formatting/images/etc

Last I checked, Office apps can print a selection, or various other options. With a section of the document selected, Print (cmd-P), then select the option to print the selection in the print dialog box.

I hardly ever use it anymore.

Open the Word Help and search for Print Selection.


Since only the App knows what content you have selected, and only the app knows how to raster the content you have selected, the app is the only thing that can provide the feature you want.

If the app supports printing the selection, the setting will most likely be where you choose the page range.
